[Intro]
Come on out here, Rhonda

[Verse 1]
Dorothy was a waitress on the promenade
She worked the night shift
Dishwater blonde, tall and fine
She made a lot of tips
Oh yes

[Verse 2]
Earlier I'd been talkin' stuff in a violent room
Fightin' with a lover's past
I needed someone with a quicker wit than mine
Dorothy was fast, yeah yeah

[Verse 3]
I ordered: "Yeah, let me get a fruit cocktail and a pizza"
Dorothy laughed
She said: "It sound like a real man to me
You're kinda cute, you wanna take a bath?"
Do you wanna bath?

[Verse 4]
Oh, I said: "Cool, but I'm leavin' my pants on
'Cause I'm kinda goin' with someone"
"Sound like a real man to me
Mind if I turn on the radio?"
"Gee, uh, my favorite song," she said
And it was Joni singing:
"Help me, I think I'm falling"
The phone rings
"Whoever's calling can't be as cute as you"
Right then and there I knew I was through
Dorothy Parker was cool

[Instrumental Break]

[Refrain]
Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker
Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker
Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker
Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker
Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker
Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker
Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker
Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Parker
